Are website frames a deterrent for the search engine crawlers?
                      If your personal blog has frames, it can easily obstruct the web crawlers as such computer programs are not able to track frames and this means that such web pages will remain un-ranked and un-indexed by the web crawlers. Though web crawlers of Google have the ability to read such web pages, it is still better to do some research on the search engines. 
 
Why should you design a crawler page before submitting the page to the search engines?
                     If you design a crawler page before submitting your webpage to the search engine, this can be helpful as this is the sitemap to the website.

You may use the title of each page as the link text and add on some keywords for emphasizing. This will help you grab a higher rank in the search engine results. However, the crawler page will not be considered as the website’s part as it doesn’t have enough text for the web crawlers to give a good ranking.
